Emmerdale reveals true identity of newcomer Rose – and it’s bad news for Dawn Taylor

EMMERDALE has revealed the true identity of Rose, the woman from Will Taylor’s past.

The ITV soap has been teasing the identity of the woman who arrived in the soap tonight having ended up in hospital.

Viewers watched as a shocked Will took a phone call from the hospital alerting him to the news that Rose had been in an accident.

He kept the news from his family and rushed off to go to the hospital where Rose’s identity was confirmed.

Will was shocked to see his ex-wife and mother of daughter Dawn at the hospital – though she didn’t appear to be in a bad way.

Instead she was cracking jokes with the nurses as Will arrived having been called as her next of kin.

She revealed she’s travelled all over the world and has settled down in Benidorm.

“I had to leave to live and I have zero regrets,” she said. “Not one.”

Will was furious at Rose’s dismissal of how abandoning her family had affected their daughter.

She told him: “She’s alive, safe and happy. So I’m good.”

Will tore into Rose for everything that happened, telling her how after she left Will had been forced to take on a dodgy job that landed him in prison – and Dawn in care.

“Dawn was forced from one bad home to another and I could do nothing about it,” he said.

“I tried to track you down but you were well gone. Dawn grew up alone and unloved, all because you didn’t leave a forwarding address.”

He asked her if she would’ve returned home and she confirmed she wouldn’t have done leaving him furious.

Meanwhile back at Home Farm Will kept it all secret from Kim – but with him looking at Rose’s social media profiles, Kim discovered it and was troubled.

But what will she do?
